This is all very interesting

Two days before I had my first ever symptom of MS -Optic neuritis, I clearly remember turning my head to the right to back out of my drive and felt the most strange pain in my jugular. It stopped me cold for a second and then went away. I felt off for the day and then my eye started to turn out, by day 2 I no control of my vision and my eye completley rolled off to the side of my head. I went to my doctor and he had me admitted immediatley to the hospital. The suspected a stoke. test came back fine. After a week in there, they tested me for everything from aids to lupus to MS. My MRIs showed lesions on my optic nerves and spinal tab had bands. EVP positive. My life changed forever, I had been diagnosed with MS in less then a month. Anyways, My iron levels at the time where way out of wack (previous post in detail with Quix) and the Dr's had no idea if it corralated. I have always maintained that it did, but I am no doctor. Just my story. Thank for the great article
